There was Powerboat racing in the harbour yesterday and I thought it would be a good chance to test out my Nikon 80-200 f2.8 lens which has a pretty serious amount of fungus in it with my Nikon D90. Luckily the light was on my side so I didn’t have to worry too much about lens flare.
As we were walking to a good vantage point the race started and on the second turn two of the boats collided resulting in one of them overturning… I saw it happen but didn’t have a camera out so only got the aftermath.
Anyway I was reasonably happy with the way the lens handled and even sniped a couple of portrait shots of the crowd 🙂

This was taken last Tuesday afternoon as I wandered around for 30 minutes while the girls were at ballet. The light was spectacular and I ended up taking a whole roll (12 shots) which is pretty unheard of for me 🙂 .
This was taken using the time honoured “I’m waiting for you to walk past but really I am taking your photo” method.

Some more outdoor indoor living… This one was in a abandoned building behind the hospital.
It was taken through a window which gave it the fake tilt/ shift look.

I haven’t seem many sleepers about recently so and I had to grab this one quickly as a member of staff was hovering nervously in the background who had obviously been told to move this guy on :)… Guess the coffee didn’t work so good.
